That may be the case in terms of timeline, but what remains is the fact 
that what we no longer have is "Boston talk radio" that we can be proud 
of anymore.  Not to disparage all of the talent who are there and doing 
their best, however, there were talkers who truly broke ground both for 
radio and for Boston in that process.  Am I wrong?
